Appears to be a beautiful Native American woman holding some butter. I don't see the problem. My main issue with the depiction is that it appears to be historically inaccurate because I don't think (correct me if I'm wrong) Indian tribes had access to Land O' Lakes butter.

I like the boneless wings from Applebee’s.  When I worked at a Walmart that was next to an Applebee’s I would show up an hour early for my night shift and see how many 2 dollar beers I could drink before work.  Very tiring trying to stay awake for 3rd shift while buzzing / drunk / hungover.

If memory serves it was 1/2 price beer and wings after 9pm and my shift would start at 10pm...This allotted me 56-57 minutes of drinking

But hey, if we have to take away the face of an iconic black woman from a product in he name of racism, so be it I guess...




I would rather we took Oprah's book club from her, it's going to be kinda hard to do in the name of racism

In Repo Man they couldn't afford to pay to use any trademarks so the cans just say like "beer" or "food" on them

Some of you people questioning this seriously need to pick up a book.

Not only is it inarguably racist but it is sexist as well.

Let me explain why.

As previously touched upon its one of the biggest examples of the mammy archetype of a matronly black housekeeper widely popularized by the character Aunt Chloe in Harriet Beecher Stowe’s widely successful “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” While it can not be disputed the attention to the abolitionist movement the book provided and fire to the movement it cultivated the book and Stowe herself were far from flawless, not only did the book promote samboism, but it refined the mammy archetype in the cultural mind if a rapidly industrializing America. It brought forth and normalized the thinking that the role of the black woman was household servitude. This saw its roots during slavery where black woman were not only subjected to the same harsh punishment as their male counterparts but with the addition of rape and other forms of sexual humiliation, but they were also expected to keep up with the men in the fields and tend to house and home during any free time they had at the end of the day, many women where forced to take their children into the fields with them. This stereotype was brought to a head after emancipation during the reconstructionist era when the throngs of free slaves were given little other economic options outside of sharecropping and domestic servitude. It’s here the mammy stereotype thrived as practically every house across the country, north and south, relied upon the long painstaking hours of black woman house keeper, a slave in all but name. The stereotype of the promiscuous black woman who “wanted it” comes from this period of the mammy archetype as it was expected that these “free” black housekeepers were to serve every sexual desire of not only the master of the household but his sons as well.

So ya, fuck aunt Jemima.

You're totally right Sara and it's definitely that old Southern Mammy stereotype, which I am sure every  black lady just loves :rolleyes:.



I'm so so sick of brands trying to be all woke so they can sell more shit. It's just constant, and it feels like brands are constantly trying to exploit these feelings and movements to me. But I get that someone in charge looked at the current climate..and looked at their logo, and went..:uhoh:. And they very well should, I guess, though the execution leaves a little to be desired for me.

Fuck Aunt Jemima though, worst maple syrup everrrr.

Its obvious, I'm just lulzing because the brand should have vanished with Darkie Toothpaste and Niggerhair Tobacco.  Aunt Jemima is even the name of her own stereotype.

What about black women who take passion in making food for everyone and generally being a loving person, who also ENJOYS to bear the burden of maintaining a home. I live in an area that is 50% black. I've known black people who love the image of Aunt Jemima, as it reminds them of their own relatives.

They never read those racist books Saratonin broke down for us.

Seems like such intricate racism like this is only studied by extremely white people, and the blacks don't really care. At least the American blacks that I have known. They're more concerned about cops and kkk'ers.

I think that if they saw a white chick explaning such detail about racism beyond what they care to decipher, they're gonna be offended that a white chick thinks she knows better what offends them.

If white people continue down this path of identifying and demonizing all and any hint of racism, they're gonna wind up attacking all areas of black american culture. Because much of it came from blacks history in the US. So you'll eventually destroy their whole culture then, because every part of it can be connected to their history, which is all racist based.

“We recognize Aunt Jemima’s origins are based on a racial stereotype,” Kristin Kroepfl, vice president and chief marketing officer of Quaker Foods North America, said in a press release. “As we work to make progress toward racial equality through several initiatives, we also must take a hard look at our portfolio of brands and ensure they reflect our values and meet our consumers’ expectations.”





That says enough.

More windfall from the protests.
